Dubliners Women

Adapted by Katie O’ Kelly from James Joyce’s Dubliners

Produced by Witchwork Theatre company.

A delicate, balanced, and wistful evening of theatre. The stories are not adapted textually - they are 'told' by the three cast members, with the staging providing the dramatic input. And a fine one it is, by director Sarah Baxter. Joyce was a genius, we know that. And I have no hesitation in writing that he would have felt his immortal stories well served by this production. - The Irish Independent

The precise performances under the direction of Sarah Baxter are sharp as a cutthroat razor, as is the humour that radiates from the text itself and the actors’ talent. Dubliners Women is a delight to watch.. It is an hour of near impeccable theatre. ****- Review Hub

Sarah Baxter directs each story with elan. - No More Workhorse
